Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 8 candidates for student government: Hal, Mary, Ann, Frank, Beth, John, Emily, and Tom.

The three candidates that receive the highest number of votes become candidates for a runoff election.

i.e. 3 persons out of 8 to be selected for becoming candidates for a runoff election.

Since order does not matter we use combinations here

3 persons out of 8 can be done in 8C3 ways

= 56

no of 3-candidate combinations  possible are 56

Which ordered pairs are solutions to the inequality 2x-y>1?
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Any points in the shaded region including (2,-2) and (-3,-8)

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert the line into slope intercept form and graph it.

2x-y > 1 becomes -y>1-2x. Divide both sides by -1 and you get y<2x-1. Graph it with the shaded area on the right and a dashed line.

Any point which falls within the shaded red of the graph is a solution. No points on the line since it is not equal to (its dashed) are solutions. Check the location of your points to verify that they fall within this area.

(-3, -8)  ---Yes

(-1, -3)  ---No

(0, 5)  --- No

(1, 6)  --- No

(2, -2) ---Yes
